With hundreds of air-cooled Beetles and buses, this year’s VolksWorld Show is set to be the biggest ever

VolksWorld Show returns to the South of England Showground on Sunday 22 March 2026, bringing together some of the finest air-cooled Volkswagens from across the UK, Europe and even the US.

For 2026, there’s a £30 camping pitch offer, allowing visitors to arrive from Friday evening. There’s Friday night entertainment between 5pm and 10pm courtesy of Slaughter House Customs.

Traders, clubs and display cars will arrive throughout Saturday, just in time for VW specialist and VolksWorld Show Headline Partner, EMPI to celebrate its 70th birthday on the Saturday evening, complete with food, a bar and music.

With the main event opening Sunday morning, inside the Queens Building, VolksWorld Magazine will present a carefully curated indoor display featuring some of the best builds from the UK, Europe and the US, including several never-seen-before projects.

Outside, you’ll find hundreds of individual and club cars and vans, with dedicated displays from groups including Wolfsburg Bus Crew, The Vintage Guys and Air-Cooled Youth. Awards will be presented throughout the day to standout clubs and exceptional vehicles.

YouTuber Auto Alex will also be in attendance with his beautifully restored T25, Betty. It’s a transformation story worth seeing up close — from serious rust to a seriously clean build. There will also be a bustling trade village, bringing together the best VW specialist businesses from across the UK plus a swapmeet for anyone looking for that elusive part.

For families, VanMan returns to the KidsZone returns with activities for younger visitors. There will also two climbing walls, giant Jenga, colouring in sheets, plus the Heritage Treasure Hunt.
